If you do not press F10 at the appropriate time, you must restart the computer and again press F10 when the monitor light turns green to access the utility.

The Computer Setup Utility screen is divided into menu headings and actions.

Five menu headings appear on the Computer Setup Utility screen:

Use the arrow keys to select the appropriate heading, then press Enter. Use the arrow (up and down) keys to select the option you want, then press Enter. To return to the previous screen, press Esc.

Do NOT turn the computer power OFF while the ROM is saving the Computer Setup (F10) changes because the CMOS could become corrupted. It is safe to turn off the computer only after exiting the F10 Setup screen.
